Seven seas across, in the beautiful island of my mind
I saw my face reflected in the water
Glimmered by the fishes who sought more
Dispersed as my footsteps were forged into the sand
The water cupped in my palm held the shells
Which read the messages of my past
Run! Fear! Even though I ought to be
My eyes told a different story of the free
O How much I wished to be a fish
Who took the vast ocean as their shelter
Living in the psyche of one another
Even as the truth eluded from every side
Attacked all seconds by the mighty adverse
The land was a refugee and I was the star
I could only watch while the moon pulled tides
And flood my conscience with the dread I held
As I wished to embrace the end
From the tears of everyone who loved me
Of the one act, I played my whole life
Of a mere human from this land- my own mind
